A percentage of your total weekly bandwidth has been used - You specify the percentage.

All of your first-class bandwidth is used -You can continue to access the Internet using the second-class network, subscribe to a weekly bandwidth plan or purchase one-time bandwidth through TXShop. Go to the Buying Additional Bandwidth site for more information.

The amount of data you upload increases significantly - This can be a sign that your computer is infected with a virus or a P2P application. You can select the activity level that triggers a notice.

The final step in the process is selecting where you want the notices to be sent. The default setting is your official university email address.
